Oh shit!!! It was on already & I missed it???! I love all 3 actors....ok, not Romano so much. Didn't like Everyone Loves Raymond ( oh no they don't) But am hoping he redeems himself in this. I hope they repeat it.

Bad sentence structure on my part. I'm sad it's the Tudors last season, I just want to see it SOON!

Me, too! The show makes me smile.
Modern Family was hysterical last night. I love that show more every week.

I only got to see about 5 minutes of Glee. Had a meeting that went past 9 & then had to call someone to tell them what happened at the meeting, so only caught about the last 5 minutes. It was good to see the principle finally grow a set.
Anyone see Nip/Tuck? I used to kind of like Christian, but he really has no redeeming qualities. ruthless bastard.

Maybe they'll pull a "Garrett" & bring Keith back as a different character.

Yes, this is the last season, cannot wait to see them again.
And Damages should be back soon also. and maybe Meadowlands.

I love Deb. Right now her and Dexter are easily the only two characters I care about.
I hope she doesn't get with Quinn, he's a dirty cop.
Dexter broke Showtime's ratings sunday night as the highest rated show since a boxing match in 1999. Awesome.
Can't wait to see who the villian is next year. I'm kinda over Lithgow. (sorry)
Tudors back soon I hope for the last season.

so very much i dont. she reminds me way too much of a couple of women ive had the disaster to know. they seemed daringly cool in the beginning but became needy,emotional yeast infections immediately after the trap was sprung. i still cringe

I agree about the actress, tho I never did like her character. So maybe she is a better actor than I realized.

I know, he is just fucking creepy, he gets that little smile on his face yet has such cold eyes. It is hard to believe he's the 3rd Rock guy. I hope he gets an Emmy or something for this. And I'll bet he had an absolute blast doing this role .
